As per my opinion , you must take one more surgeon advice because it is grade one injury so can be taken care by physitherapy but at the same it consisted of three ligaments that is ACL, LCL and medial meniscus , so there is a point how much meniscus is injured.
So u must take one more opinion and then proceed further.
